The MeidasTouch Podcast kicks off 2025 with a look at the chaos defining the new year. We cover the tragic attack in New Orleans, falsely blamed on migrants by the GOP, and the shocking attack by a U.S. Army veteran outside Trump International Hotel. Rumors swirl about MAGA Mike Johnson’s shaky hold on the Speaker’s gavel just before the crucial vote. We also dissect Trump’s bizarre Mar-a-Lago New Year’s bash, his flip-flop on H1B1 visas, and the Democrats’ bold new strategy to hold him accountable. Ben, Brett and Jordy break it all down!

We'll talk about the dynamic there.
Also, Donald Trump had an awful New Year's event that looked like a D-list celebrity party with Lara Trump singing out of tune and other D-listers there, even when surrounded with the trappings of Trump. the most powerful position in the world. Donald Trump managed to surround himself with losers and to make himself further look like a loser.
Also speaking about that New Year's event, Donald Trump claimed that he's always been a supporter of the H-1B visa program. Well, Midas Touch dug up statements Donald Trump made in 2016 and 2020, where Donald Trump said, I've got a plan. I've got concepts of plans where I'm going to eliminate H-1B and I'm going to give all of these jobs to Americans. H-1B is very, very unfair.
We'll break all of that down, as well as the fact that President Biden on Thursday gave the Presidential Medal Award to Liz Cheney and Benny Thompson for their work on the January 6th committee and telling the truth relating to what happened on January 6th. That and more here on the Midas Touch podcast. Brett and Jordy, good to be with you both in 2025.
And of course, great to be with all of you, the Midas Mighty in 2025 as well. We are in this together. We are ready to fight.
